Abstract
Electrical generators are provided by causing permanent magnets to travel through hollow passageways having electrical conductors flanking or surrounding the space within the passageways. The conductors are disposed in undulating patterns the amplitudes of which are aligned in selected correlated positions relative to the lengths of the passageways and directions of the magnetic flux lines in order to maximize the electromagnetically generated voltage and current in the conductors.
